Pun Miaupa went home alone.
Wakara’s daughters waited for their father, and when he didn’t come back they began to cry. At last, when it was dark and they saw their father far up in the sky, they cried very bitterly.
Next morning Pun Miaupa took Halai Auna, his wife, and his uncle, and went to his father’s house.
Chuhna, the greatest spinner in the world, lived among Wakara’s daughters. All day those women cried and lamented.
“What shall we do?” said they; “we want to go and live near our father. Who can take us up to him?”
“I will take you up to him,” said Chuhna, the spinner, who had a great rope fastened to the sky.
Chuhna made an immense basket, put in all the daughters with their husbands, and drew them up till they reached the sky; and Wakara’s daughters, the stars, are there on the sky yet.
